"Heartbreak Rodeo" lyrics

"Heartbreak Rodeo"

Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh

I think about you when I drink, I play it out, I pull the string
Don't mean a thing until it's too strong
I let you take me for a ride, I know I held on way too tight
And nothing hurts like a lost cause

Ah-ooh
We danced around the fire
Ah-ooh
Left me in embers, on the floor
And I still feel the burn

I know you want what you can't have
Once you're gone, you don't get to come back
You had me and chose to leave what was gonna be the greatest show on dirt
You know this ain't my first
Heartbreak rodeo, oh-oh, oh-oh
Heartbreak rodeo, oh-oh, oh-oh

I let the grass get to my knees, choke out the flowers with the weeds
It was wild for a season
Two things can be true, you messed me up, and I miss you
And that's not the kind of love worth keeping

Another lesson learned

I know you want what you can't have
Once you're gone, you don't get to come back
You had me and chose to leave what was gonna be the greatest show on dirt
You know this ain't my first
Heartbreak rodeo, oh-oh, oh-oh
Heartbreak rodeo, oh-oh, oh-oh

Say goodbye, say goodbye, I don't need it
Drew a line, I ain't trying to cross
Say goodbye, say goodbye, I tried for what it's worth
You know it ain't my first

I know you want what you can't have
Once you're gone, you don't get to come back
You had me and chose to leave what was gonna be the greatest show on dirt
You know this ain't my first
Heartbreak rodeo, oh-oh, oh-oh
Heartbreak rodeo, oh-oh, oh-oh
